As with the earlier post of aventurine necklace, i actually did the earrings first. The original design was from a craft book i saw once, that had 3 drops per earring, but that was waaaay to much. Plus it would be too heavy to be comfortable for long wear.

Aventurine necklace - copper
Didn't know what the results would be like, until the final product was finished. I'm quite pleased with it, the warm copper color and apple green aventurine was a great combination. I used peach colored fresh water pearls, swarovksi crystals and amethyst to add a slight hint of contrast.
(photos look horrible, need help)

Lampwork focal beads
Couldn't figure out what to do with 'em, finally made pretty simple ones with metal charms dangling at the end of the focal bead. Just to have the focus on the lovely lampworked bead, I used a simple chain to complete the necklace.
Will be available at offline Blogshop by next week :)

More Pendants - large wire flower
Measuring slightly below 3 inches each, I wanted to create a larger flower pendant rather than the smaller ones I used to do. These were done one day when i was staring at my 20ga wires. I'll probably make more and have it up for sale on both TrinketTrove.etsy.com and at the Trinket Trove space at Offline Blogshop in Sunway Pyramid by early Feb 2011.

supplying to the Offline Blogshop
Turns out tagging each item can be a ridiculously time consuming process. I did the tagging for all the necklaces but not for all the earrings. With over 150 items of varying sizes, I'd better get myself organised.
Made cord necklaces for the flower charms I did awhile ago. Am sure glad I managed to tag them! Finished the beaded silver link necklace with silver chains and supplied those too. These pictures don't do justice, beads really look beautiful when your wearing them.

Made to order - bracelet
Had an order recently to make a chunky bracelet for a nice lady. Autumn toned stones, swarovski crystals and wooden + glass beads. Drapes very nicely on the wrist i must admit.
She told me she had quite a few compliments from her church members , yay :)
